To be clear, there are a number of languages that could be considered Chinese. These are Mandarin, Cantonese and Shanghainese. The most common and what is normally considered 'Chinese' is Mandarin. This language descends from the Han people, or the people of the North but is now the official language of China.
About 1/5, or more than a billion, of the world's population speak Chinese. It is also one of the six official languages of the United Nations.
If you travel in Asia, it will be especially useful as it is spoken not only in China but in Taiwan and Singapore where it is one of four official languages. As a number of characters were borrowed from the Japanese, you will recognize some of the characters used, although they don't always have the same meaning.
